Case Studies

We were able to show the township assessor's office that the initial assessment placed on this building should be reduced. We accomplished this by presenting an appraisal backed by actual construction costs. The property tax impact was a reduction of this property's 2006 payable 2007 tax bill of $20,000.

This grocery store chain, whose locations we review annually to make sure the assessments are accurate, is an example of the type of client we can help. In the case of this particular property, we were able to save them $23,000 by asking the assessor to reclassify the use of the property.

This medical office building is located in Hamilton County. After our company applied for and received a deduction they were eligible for, their overall 2006 payable 2007 property tax bill was reduced by $22,000 a year.

This dentist office located in the Noblesville area was being assessed with a full basement, and first and second story office areas. After working with the assessor's office to correct the basement square footage and the classification of the other office areas, we were able to reduce the annual property tax bill for 2006 payable 2007 by $10,300.

The $35,957 savings for this warehouse/distribution center located in Johnson County was accomplished by going back to the basics of the building. The usage, wall height and types of materials used to build this building were all re-examined, and adjusted to accomplish the reduction.

After analyzing the client's income and expense information on this medical office building located in Hamilton County, we were able to present data to the assessor's office that convinced them to reduce the assessment.

We were able to gather information the owner already had on this location in Lake County, including an appraisal and income/expense data, to assist in making a case savings. In this instance, we accomplished a savings of $18,000.
